Another visit to the School Garden for this "vertical garden". It consists of a supported pallet with various second use plastic tubs wired to it. It was going to be "vertical veg" but it is a lot less challenging to find drought forgiving plants for the summer holiday if you don't restrict it to edible veg.
As an exercise in using a small space to grow in using recycled materials it has been a lot of fun. I think it might evolve a bit over the coming year with the lessons learned. It literally is lifting higher and higher!
So do you have the job of watering in the summer break?
ReplyDeleteI am delighted to report that the Garden Volunteers are operating a watering rota for the whole garden over the next six weeks! (Scottish schools' summer starts and ends two weeks earlier than English schools)
